Currently reading The Vision of the Anointed by Thomas Sowell and the book I finished before it was Knellers Happy Campers by Edgar Kenet which is a short story that was adapted into a movie in like 06 called Wristcutters about a guy who kills himself and goes to an afterlife for all the people who committed suicide. I learned it was based on the short story so I found it for cheap and read it

I'm reading "The Bothers of Gwynedd Quartet". It's a single volume collection of a four part series by Ellis Peter's, the pen name of Edith pargeter. Its fictionalised account of the life of the last true native born Prince of Wales Llywellyn ap Gruffyd and the struggles he had trying to unify Wales against the English and the politicking of his own family. I'd highly recommend it to anyone with an interest in medieval history. It's well researched, and from an English author it's very patriotic towards Wales. Plus men are men, women are women and God is great.
The author has a few classics, "A bloody field by Shrewsbury" is a great battle novel, and she had a long running series of Medieval crime dramas following a Benedictine monk called Cadfael solving murders with 'the Anarchy' as a backdrop.
